Re: GDT: Detroit Lions @ Oakland Raiders kdsberman wrote: im kinda wondering how many of the starters GB will play now that they dont have anything to really play for. Agreed. With their injury issues specifically along the Oline I doubt they play Rodgers more than half the game agaisnt us. Risking their season behind 3 backup / out of position oline guys in a meaningless game doesnt make a ton of sense.

Re: GDT: Detroit Lions @ Oakland Raiders It all depends on home field, which they have locked up, right?

I don't think so because we could concievably earn ourselves a home playoff game if GB gets upset in the playoffs. Plus with the way things are going, many of our starters are already getting some rest. I think that no matter what happens GB and Det will try to win that game.

There is absolutely ZERO chance we will get to host a playoff game this year. Unless, all the division winners are eliminated before the NFC Championship and the Lions have the highest wildcard seed.

Fisher or Joekel or Lane Johnson for #5 overall. I have settled on Johnson as my preference. The only thing Joekel and Fisher have over him is experience at LT. 2 years from now, Lane Johnson will be known as the best LT of this draft!

Re: GDT: Detroit Lions @ Oakland Raiders Not sure if this has been posted anywhere on the site but looking back it was a pretty amazing drive and I forgot that it went 98 yds. Some nice ground level camera shots here in this video: http://www.nfl.com/videos/nfl-drive-of- ... ent_stream

That, and I'd rather play Dallas rather then San Fran, or New Orleans...

Re: GDT: Detroit Lions @ Oakland Raiders May sound funny but since it looks possible there might be a re-match, I would love to play SF again in the playoffs
